JANUS STRING QUARTET takes its name and inspiration from Janus, the Roman god of time and transitions, presenting faces that look to the past and the future.  Janus brings together rising stars Devin Copfer and Kelsey Shaheen with veterans Nancy Nehring and Mark Rudoff. They share the artistic mission of tugging on threads that connect old and new musics, and weaving those threads into the broad tapestry of the humanities. Recent Janus work includes appearing on stage in Ballet Met‘s production of Cacti, and video performances of works by Haydn and Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson for the First Community Church Easter season Meditations on the Crucifixion: An Evening of Transfiguration.
